Whyßuickis "The Standard of Comparison” It has been a fixed Buick policy always to anticipate motoring demands by developing new and advanced features of design and construction. This has been one of the many factors con tributing to Buick’s great popularity—a popularity tangibly expressed in the fact that Buick is well on its way towards the manu facture of its two-millionth motor car. Buick recognizes it as a distinct obligation to live up to the spirit and letter of its slogan “When Better Automobiles Are Built, Buick Will Build Them”. # • D-15-SHfP BROWN-BUICK SERVICE STATION, SANFORD, Distributors : Chatham, Lee, Moore and Montgomery When better automobiles are built, Buick will build them | The Best Fo L r e*8 t e Money jj We have a full and complete stock of the best in Fur- |» l j siiture.

BRIEF, INTERESTING FACTS J Figures find Historical Mention Os Interest. Dearborn Independent. * The hollow-nosed “dumdum” bullets got their name from the place where they were manufactured. Dumdum is a town in British India in the divi sion of Bengal. Fisheries experts and scientists have been unable to ascertain accurately how sponges feed. An ordinary sponge will grcty from one ton one and one half inches or more a year. A new powder for use in small arms and artillery has been invented. It has all the driving power of the type now used and is smokeless, flaehless and imprevious to moisture. Profiteers in Bulgaria will be sub ject to public beatings with lashes, confiscation of their property and permanent disbarment from business under the terms of a bill to be sub mitted to the national assembly. Siberia has its bootleggers and illicit stills. Os 1,120,000,000 pounds of com i harvested in the Government of Omsk last year 180,000,000 pounds were us ed for illegal distilling. Within a month 900 stills were confiscated and more than 1,000 persons were arrest ed for illicit traffic in liquor. Old Spain is just now being swept by a wave of enthusiasm for all kinds of athletic sports. Football, especial-; ly, seems to have appealed to the j youngbloods of Spain and many of j them are forsaking the lure of the bullfights for the gridiron sport. With only about one-half of one per cent of the world’s population, Canada produces ninety percent of its cobalt, 88 percent of its asbestos, 85 percent of its nickel, 32 percent of its pulp wood, twenty percent of its lumber and twenty percent of its cured fish. An aching tooth in action is the lat est subject for the movies in France. It is a film used in a crusade to im prove the teeth of the people. Dur ing the war, seventy-five percent of the men examined were dentally un fit. The film pictures a throbbing nerve in its most excruciating stages, and those who saw the picture attest to its vivid accuracy. An instrument which automatically and accurately records the passing of any vessel over a given body of water, night or day, to observers who may be located on the shore, has been invent ed in Australia. It consists of a small searchlight sending a ray no larger than a pencil across the space to be controlled and a receiving apparatus at the other end containing a light-, sensitive selenium cell. Bari, a seaport and important com mercial town in Apulia, Italy, has a church dedicated to the memory of St. Nicholas (the American Santa Claus). The church was founded in 1087 to receive the relics of the saint, which Iwere brought from Smyrna in Lycia, where he was a bishop, and which now lie beneath the altar in the crypt. It was at Bari that Pet er, the Hermit, in 1095, preached his first crusade. Thomas A. Edison says, “There is something wrong with the college sys tem. I don’t kn<yw what the trouble , is; that’s not my line. I can only ! judge by the results. But one thing ' is certain: the present system of edu- I cation in the colleges does not train men to think. I am in favor of the ' college. That is where I get some of j my best men. I have 60 of them now, | but they are 60 culled out of 2,000. ; That’s a pretty low percentage, isn’t it?” Professional Sards DR. ERNEST BROWN. —Chiropractor— -109 South Steele St. SANFORD, N. C.
